What you can expect
Ease into the evening with a relaxed, two-hour twilight canoe tour on Lake Fyans, right in the heart of the Grampians. Paddling as the sun dips behind the ranges, the sky puts on a show, and the water turns glassy. With a friendly local guide leading the way, you’ll glide along at a gentle pace, keeping an eye out for native wildlife as it starts to stir in the cooler evening air. Suitable for first timers or those in the area looking for something fun to do outdoors.
Take it easy with all the details sorted for you, with canoes, paddles, and life jackets ready to go. Enjoy a light snack and refreshments to keep things cosy as the sun sets and welcome the end of the day in scenic style.

A great experience
We spent two hours canoeing on Lake Fyans with our guide Kayla who was lovely. She gave us some hints on different paddling strokes, but otherwise allowed us to explore the lake and go to the more quiet and enchanting parts of it. At times, it felt like we were the only ones there. We also had a swim and a nice chat along the way. A great experience overall.
